bingchen!From what I learned from your profile,you are already 29 years old.i think it will be somewhat tedious to carry a baby after 30.So,it is high time,you have to decide about giving birth a baby now.Don't worry much about your earnings.We can't judge how much we can earn in the future.Who knows,your baby can bring a great fortune for you.So,don't delay.Babies bring new meanings to your life.

hi bingchen you really should not wait too much longer as at your age we start to have risks at childbirth so the sooner you can have a child before you are too far into your thirties the better. as after thirty five or so the risk of problems is much higher. as for finances you and your husband will have to sit down and plan it all out. For onething a lot of women and I was one of them work while carrying a baby then quit in the last one or two months. I had my son at age 31, and my daughter at age32. She had birth defects but my son was perfect, no problems at all. So I urge you not to wait too long as in your thirties you start to run into the problem of birth defects.I worked as a nurses aide up until the last part of the eight month then I quit to raise my child,I went back to work when they were older.you can work and have children too you know. I think you need to work outside the home as you will not feel complete without this and your children will stillthrive as mom will be happy and completed.

I had my baby girl at 36 years old and she is normal. I had a horrible birth with her. I had my toddler son at 34 years old and he is disabled. He has spina bifida and hydrocephalus. I had an easy birth with him. I had my teenage son when I was 22 years old and he is normal.

Your husband is keen to become a dad but you are more practical thinking that you want to have a baby when the time is right. I think that you could discuss parenting with your husband. If possible you should invite some friends and their children round for tea. Over a period of time your husband should be able to see the expense of having children. A lady that has children could work full or part time and have a child minder. She could be a stay at home mom if she can afford this. Good luck with letting your husband understand.

Hello dear, In relation with my response to your other discussion,you can discuss this matter with your husband. A child can wait. You can tell him that,you are not yet prepared,and having a child someone must be financially and emotionally stable to bring a child in this life. You can tell your husband that,you still want to enjoy sometime being a husband and wife. It is just a matter of explanation and i am sure if he loves you,he will understand and respect your decision and consider your feelings too,and not just his eagerness to have a child. I wish you a peaceful New year dear

Having a child of your own is a step in your life that is very different from any other thing that you have experienced in your life and it is a great treasure as well. However, if you try to wait to have a child until you are financially stable enough to have children, then you will never have a child of your own. Yes, there are a lot of sacrifices that you will have to make in your life once you become a mother, but shortly after your child is born you will find that your life is more rewarding than it has ever been in the past. However, I can't speak for you. So you have to make sure that the decision that you make for yourself is something that you are comfortable with.

There are many working mothers; meaning, they can work and have children at the same time. Working mothers are given "maternity leave". Besides, maybe your husband also works. Then no problem having a child to support.
